988 AND 211 CRISIS RESOURCES
THERE IS “NO WRONG DOOR” IN CT.
Youth in crisis?
- In CT, call 211 (press 1 for crisis, 1 for youth)
- Call/Text – 988 or Chat 988lifeline.org
Adults in crisis?
- In CT, call 800-HOPE-135 or 211 (press 1 for crisis, 2 for adults),
- Call/Text – 988 or Chat 988lifeline.org
Veterans are still guided to press 1 for the Veterans Crisis Line when they call 988, just as the 800 NSPL line did.
To reach the CT crisis contact center for telephonic support or mobile crisis services, you can call 211 and press 1 for crisis and then 1 for children or 2 for adults, or you can call 988 to be routed to the CT contact center.
You will not have to press any other numbers when you call 988 to get services – call, text and chat services are all functioning.
